Built different

The Shopify for retreat hosts.

Most booking software was built for surf camps and adventure resorts with a team of five and a budget to match. HostMate was built for the people actually running retreats — solo hosts, small centres, and wellness teachers who need everything to just work without a huge monthly bill and a three-hour onboarding call.

Take payments. Fill spots. Run your waitlist. Send the right email at the right time. All from one place, for a fraction of what the enterprise tools charge.

No commissions.

No long-term contracts.

No features you'll never use.

Just your retreat, running smoothly.

What's included

Everything you need. Nothing you don't.

📅

Take bookings instantly

A clean booking page that works on any device. Guests pick a date, pay their deposit, and they're confirmed — no back-and-forth, no chasing bank transfers.

📋

Waitlists that actually work

When a retreat fills up, Hostmate automatically captures the next person in line and notifies them the moment a spot opens. You never lose a booking to bad timing.

💳

Payments without the headache

Collect deposits, instalments, or full payments upfront. Set your own terms. Money hits your account directly — we don't sit in the middle taking a cut.

✉️

Guest comms on autopilot

Confirmation emails, pre-retreat info, post-retreat follow-ups. Write them once, send them forever. Your guests feel looked after. You're at the beach.

🎨

Your brand, not ours

Your booking page looks like you built it. Custom colours, your logo, your voice. Guests never know what software you're using — and that's the point.

🏷️

Priced for real humans

Bookinglayer starts at €260/month. Hostmate starts at a price that makes sense for a host running four retreats a year. You keep more of what you earn.

One Retreat Can Change Your Business

Who HostMate.cc Is For

Built for people who host transformational experiences.

  • Yoga retreat hosts
  • Wellness coaches
  • Creators with communities
  • Facilitators and teachers
  • Retreat businesses running multiple events

If you host retreats — or plan to — this platform is built for you.

The Problem

Running a Retreat Shouldn't Feel Like
Running a Tech Startup

Most retreat hosts end up running their business like this:

✕

Website builder

$35/mo

✕

Email platform

$79/mo

✕

Booking system

$49/mo

✕

Payment processor

3.5% fees

✕

Waitlist tool

$25/mo

✕

CRM

$45/mo

But the real cost isn't money. It's time.

  • Hours spent moving information between tools.
  • Manual emails.
  • Tracking payments in spreadsheets.
  • Fixing broken booking flows.

You didn't start hosting retreats to manage software.

The Story

Built From the Inside Out

Glowstate's first retreat in Portugal sold out in 48 hours.

But behind the scenes:

  • Payment plans were tracked in spreadsheets.
  • Emails were sent manually.
  • Waitlists were chaotic.
  • Website updates needed a developer.

We searched everywhere for a platform built for retreat hosts.
It didn't exist.

So we built the platform we wished we had.

HostMate.cc now runs the entire Glowstate retreat business — and it's available to every retreat host who deserves better.

“I didn't want to be a platform entrepreneur. I wanted to host incredible retreats. HostMate.cc lets me just do that.”
